Hardwiring 12v tv into caravan leisure circuit
Posted: Mon Jun 08, 2015 8:14 pm
Hi - Hope this isn't a silly question!
I recently bought a 12v tv for my motorhome; it came with a 12v transformer that you can just plug into a normal 230v home socket. My motorhome has a junction box that runs from the leisure battery (12v) with positive and negative terminals, and lights and some other devices are plugged in there.
Would it be possible to just cut the lead off my transformer plug and wire it into the junction box, as I don't need the transformer part of the plug as it's already 12v? Does that make sense? I'd like to run it from the leisure battery.
Thanks!
